#mae overshares#humm might be spicy take but if you are trying to date/marry a widowed parent whose existing child is still attached to their missing parent#and you are not as committed in being that child's new parent as you are being that child's parent's spouse#then you are an asshole in my book and you shouldn't have tried to build your own merry family on the ruins of somebody else's broken family#this post is about indis. i dont like her. i will never like her and my mind cannot be changed.#apparently disliking her is unpopular but idgaf#i dont wanna rant abt indis cause i dont wanna spend any attention dedicate to fictional character i dislike. life is too short for that#but every once a while i get seized by the sheer force of anger i have for indis and i WILL talk abt it or else i WILL explode#like if you are not ready to face any difficulties you might encounter and make sure the existing child of the person you are abt to marry#would feel just as loved and accepted as your own biological children in the family you are abt to build with their biological parent#then dont marry that child's parent. like idc the child was difficult in any sort of way. you are intruding upon somebody else's family lol!#your feelings don't mean dick to me if you barged on somebody's family and then the existing child rejected you as a step parent#i also dont care. in this case. that miriel did not have a problem with indis. she allowed this marriage to happen#so this is on her tbh and she knows it. and honestly she probs felt so guilty abt the way feanor turned out that she didn't have the heart#regardless of how miriel felt. i have a fucking problem with indis.#its not like i dont have a problem with finwe because he decided to have more than one child for reasons i cant understand#he obviously didn't think what remarrying to have more children would come off as to his existing child#it's like he was saying 'you are not enough' to feanor. and i didnt see this before but feanor sure grew up like the sort of children#who constantly felt like they needed to do more and be more so their parent will love them. and it's obviously his dad's fault#he also obviously didnt realize the damage he's done until decades later and feanor threatened to kill one of his other children#because feanor believed he has to compete with his half-siblings for his father's love and he was paranoid that he would be left unloved#finwe honestly didnt seem to realize what's done until his first child already turned out to be so emotionally fucked up and it was too late#my feelings towards finwe soften a lot because of what he did next: he gave up the crown and left to live with feanor#to me this signals to me that finwe was trying (in vain. but still) to rectify the situation. i don't see that as finwe siding with feanor#(because there is no way finwe thinks feanor's behaviour was in any way acceptable lol)#i see this as finwe saying 'fuck the crown. fuck being a king. what matters to me right now is to be your father.'#i see this as finwe saying 'our people can have another king but i'm your only father. and being your father means more than anything else'#i see this as finwe saying 'i'm sorry that you felt you needed to compete for my love. you never needed to fear that you will lose my love'#obvs following feanor to exile might hurt fingolfin a bit. but again. fingolfin has his younger siblings and his own mother. alive and well#he's not alone and he never felt alone. unlike feanor. so. and he got to be king didn't he? so im just saying
